Paradise

PARADISE

Feel it coming like a roll of black thunder

Heat gets heavy underneath the sky

I hear you breathing before you’re standing near me

Feels like something I ain’t ever tried

Light goes hazy as my eyelids close down

Liquid metal sinking to the floor

Try to hold it but it’s slipping through my fingers

I get the feeling I’ve been here before

It’s a long way if you wanna get back

It’s a long way to paradise

Beat gets louder as we’re moving through strangers

Rubbing shoulders with the other side

Swaying slowly to the backbeat of something

In slow motion our worlds collide

Lit up like candy rows of movie star light-bulbs

Our hearts are shining like they’ve never been

Try to hold it but it’s slipping through our fingers

Like party streamers in the summer wind

It’s a long way if you wanna get back

It’s a long way to paradise

Side stepping through this thing they call the time warp

Your lips aren’t moving but I hear your voice

Every moment brings us closer to the edge now

As if falling freely into love was a choice

Feel it coming like a roll of black thunder

Our hearts are shining like they’ve never been

Try to hold it but it’s slipping through our fingers

Like party streamers in the summer wind

Party streamers in the summer wind

It’s a long way if you wanna get back

It’s a long way to paradise

This kind of love we found, it won’t come around twice
